Sampler: Sabat magazine
Earlier this year we spoke to Elisabeth Krohn about Sabat magazine, her new imprint dedicated to modern witches. Coming from a fashion background, Elisabeth shows that you can be a witch in brands like Celine and Acne. She trawls through online forums and Instagram and reports on modern witch communities.
Telling stories of people who use crystals and tarot cards as a form of meditation or self-development, Sabat is just as interested in feminism as it is exploring and not feeling shamed by our darker selves.
